  1. My family really liked this recipe. I had to substitute though. They don't sell seasoned bread crumbs here and I didn't have time to make any. I used tomato and formagio crackers. They said I could make this recipe again. I happened to have ranch dip that someone sent me so that helped. Otherwise I would have had to make another substitution.
